  • Title: [Critical approach to technics for the disinfection of respirators with formaldehyde].
    Author: Laguenie G, Bavoux F, Garnier R, Murat I, Couturier C.
    Journal: Toxicol Eur Res; 1983 Mar; 5(2):89-94. PubMed ID: 6577697.
    Abstract:
    Method of artificial respirators desinfection by Formaldehyde is studied. Formaldehyde and ammoniac quantitative analysis are performed. Air samples are taken by dry process and by wet process. Two concentrations are in ceiling values for exposure of workers and exceed irritant concentrations during chronic exposition. Particular attention should be paid to perform measurement: air samples must be taken by wet process as artificial ventilation circumstances: indeed in this case air is humidified; potential toxicity is unappreciated in this use. Complementary studies are required.
